On with the story =]

White Flag: A Jack/Gwen Song Fiction

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it where's the sense in that?
I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder or return to where we were.

Jack Harkness looked at the beautiful woman in front of him. Gwen Cooper, she was amazing. He enlisted her into Torchwood and was content with his decision. She was smart, beautiful, caring, charismatic, courageous and very much the heart of Torchwood.

Jack didn't expect to fall in love with her; he never fell in love. The risk was too hard; it was too hard when he inevitably lost them. If he never fell in love, then he never had to experience that pain. But when it came to Gwen… he couldn't stop himself falling in love. It crept up on him faster than he could react to it.

But I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above, my door
I'm in love and always will be

When he smiled at her, it wasn't a true smile. That smile never reached his eyes; he could never tell her, because she loved Rhys. He was so lucky to have her; Jack always wished that in some way Gwen would one day be his. Living forever, though; that was something he could never do to her.

I know I left too much mess and destruction to come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of it's over then I'm sure that that makes sense

Everything that he had ever touched had turned to crap in front of his eyes. Everything that had been lost- it had been because of him. Ianto and Steven… they had all gone. He had caused so much pain to everybody, and he could see it reflected in her eyes; she had been hurt by him, he never meant to hurt her but it had happened regardless. He wished that she could understand that he was sorry for what he had done- yet, she had always forgiven him and he could never understand why.

But I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

No other woman had made him feel this way. She was the one that he had been looking for, but he had looked too late. And now she was pregnant he couldn't risk her losing that child; if she had he would never have forgiven himself. So now he had decided to use what he had learned- what he learned from that Doctor- learned to run.

And when we meet, which I'm sure we will
All that was there will be there still
I'll let it pass and hold my tongue
And you will think that I've moved on

He had one last goodbye to make; he met her upon that hill. She was there, heavily pregnant and at least six months gone. She had embraced him and told him that she had missed him- words that sounded so heavenly to his ears, he never wanted to forget them. But now… now he was moving on; not because he wanted to but because he had to. He didn't belong here anymore, there was nothing left. The pain of losing Ianto and Steven was too much to bear and walking around Cardiff would only make it even more intense. She had begged him not to go, but he told her that she had to let him go. She had to move on with Rhys and her child- she had to have that normality that she so deserved- and he had to follow that star to look for that man. The Doctor who would heal him and make him belong again.

Maybe he would meet her again- God, he hoped so-but until that day he would go. Hold his tongue, never say what he truly wanted to- and Gwen Cooper, oh Gwen Cooper; he would try to move on.

There will be no white flag above my door

I'm in love and always will be…
